Gasping is optional upon entering the expansive space of The Four Season Surfside restaurant Le Sirenuse (9101 Collins Avenue), and the Eater Miami winner for most gorgeous restaurant of 2017. The restaurant, which once served as the ballroom of The Surfside Club created by tire tycoon Harvey Firestone in 1930, was recently transformed into Le Sirenuse, the sister eatery of Michelin-star eatery La Sponda, housed inside the acclaimed Le Sirenuse hotel in Italy’s Amalfi coast.

Miami’s renowned beaches and inviting warm weather has always been a coveted getaway for the rich and famous, and when The Surfside Club first opened, it quickly became a lavish and extravagant playground for the elite where anything and everything happened.
